It’s no wonder why some Trumpbots love her. Yeah he was a criminal. He served time multiple times in his life

If you are not on board you are a flat out Fing racist! I'm so happy you're off your meds again. Welcome back Bo, you were missed! Also, I like Candace Owens a helluva lot more than any of the brain dead zombies who will be on the ballot on November.
June 7, 20205 yr I've spent a little time the last few days looking at her vids and reading about her. I think her voice would be very welcome on the national stage. She is far more nuanced and eloquent than anything Trump can deliver (obviously) and her background gives her additional credibility. Having said that I'm far away from her on most policy and I suspect I'll be very critical of her positions yet acknowledge her style of communication as very positive. I can't see myself ever voting for her but she's 50k times better than Trump in terms of explaining and defending her thoughts. One thing I find a little troubling with her story is her sudden 180. I am a bit skeptical as to how much fame drives her motivations as opposed to policy. Just a hunch...
June 7, 20205 yr Black people think she's a sellout. She will face racism on the republican side from a lot of states. I just wanna see her in a bikini. Edit: she will face sexism from horndogs.

June 7, 20205 yr 7 hours ago, Quiet Boy said: Floyd was a convicted felon. He was convicted of armed robbery for holding a loaded gun at a pregnant woman's stomach during a home invasion to force his way into her apartment while his partners in crime robbed her. Oh and the police contact he faced that day was due to the employee of the store calling law enforcement on Floyd after he passed a counterfeit bill. How can you find a problem with Candace Owens's opinion that George Floyd didn't deserve to die but also isn't a hero, while at the same time ignoring or finding no fault in Floyd's life story? I'm so confused. How many people are really saying Floyd was a hero? He was a victim. Whether some people are pushing that narrative or not it is not widespread enough to even argue about. This thread is literally the first time I've heard Floyd referred to as a hero. This is your typical "tear down a victim's character" nonsense. Disappointing to see from a future presidential nominee.

Yes though her central message is that she suggests that people stop playing the victim card for everything by default.

IIRC her message was she didn't believe he was a good martyr because he was a drug addict Also IIRC the criminal acts were just drug related
June 7, 20205 yr 58 minutes ago, Paul852 said: Yeah, not sure how using a valid victim drives home that point though. Well she is suggesting that people spend more time reinforcing positive role models and less time making martyrs of people with a long history of crime who are victims. She is basically suggesting a flip from group victim mentality to one of taking self ownership and agency. I've always suggested both measures needed to be within one package delivered at the same time.

What does being a drug addict have to do with being needlessly murdered from a police officer?

June 7, 20205 yr I'm guessing this is how Trump is going to vet candidates to replace Pence. Throw chum in the water and see who the cult gets in a frenzy for.

June 7, 20205 yr 1 hour ago, Paul852 said: Yeah, not sure how using a valid victim drives home that point though. One can be a legit victim in one circumstance and still be of low character, which is what we seem to have here. his character seems to have repeatedly put him in a place where law enforcement had to intervene, no?

Yep. And it still has zero to do with having a police officer lean on your neck for 8 minutes while you're handcuffed. Nobody is arguing Floyd was a good person. To even suggest "he put himself in that position" is a valid argument is ridiculous.

So no
